There lived a farmer in a village. He had a wonderful goose. The goose laid an egg of gold every day. The farmer was very greedy. He thought that there ware many eggs in the bally of the goose. He wanted to have all the eggs at a time to become rich overnight. One day, he hit upon a plan that he would kill the goose and get all the eggs of gold from its belly. He told his wife about his plan. His wife who was wise but not greedy said to her husband, “Don’t be greedy. Be happy with what we’ve.” But the farmer did not listen to his wife.

Grasp All, Lose All

There lived a farmer in a village. He had a wonderful (বিস্ময়কর) goose. The goose laid an egg of gold everyday. The farmer was very greedy. He thought that it was difficult for him to keep patience (ধৈর্য). He grew impatient (অস্থির) to have all the eggs at a time. If he got all the eggs in a day, he would be very rich quickly. He was quite tempted (প্রলুব্ধ). As a result, he hit upon a plan to cut the belly of the goose and collect all the eggs altogether. To implement (কার্যে পরিণত করা) his plan, he took a knife and cut the belly of the goose. To his utter surprise, he found no egg there. Another sad news for him was that the goose died for bleeding. The farmer was very shocked at the incident. He realised that he implemented a foolish plan. For his greed, he lost the wonderful goose forever.
